Notes for PHILIP SINE: Possible Philip Sine --Philip SINN B: < 1784 From the 'Harris Genealogy' A History of James Harris of New London, Conn., pg 43 is the following: Bethia Harris, Dau of Jonathon, Born in Salem, Conn., 14 Sept., 1752 m. 28 June, 1778, Col. John Jenkins, b. 27 Nov.(O.S.), or 8 Dec. (N.S.), 1751, son of John Jenkins of Wyoming, Penn. They were mar. in Jenkins Fort, Wyoming, by Rev. Jas. Benedict, ten days before the memorable Indian massacre at Wyoming, and twenty days after Col. Jenkins, then a Lieut. in the Colonial service of the Revolutionary war, had returned from a long, bitter, and perilous captivity of six months among the Indians, from whom he had effected his escape. His father, John Jenkins, Sen., born in Kingston, R.I., 6 Feb., 1728, came to Colchester, Conn., in 1750, taught school there, and mar. Lydia, dau. of Stephen Gardner, a hotel keeper on the east side of Gardner's Lake, and had the following children, viz., John, who m. Bethia Harris, as before stated; Stephen, b. 22 Feb., 1753, d. 20 Sept., 1808; Benjamin, b. 18 July, 1754, d. Mch., 1787; Amy, b. 12 Jan., 1757, d. 24 Mch., 1834; Thomas, b. 19 Jan., 1761, d. 22 Apl., 1812; William, b. 30 Oct., 1764, d. 1 Nov., 1846; and Wilkes, b. 18 July, 1767, d. 1 Apl., 1838. He removed from Colchester to Wyoming with the first company of Connecticut Settlers there in 1769, and was one of the earliest participants and chief agent in the Connecticut movement for settling that valley. Among the many sad stories of the trials and perils of the pioneer settlers of our American colonies, the story of the early settlement of this lovely valley of Wyoming is the most mournful and memorable of all, and has a peculiar interest to our Harris family. These Connecticut settlers claimed title there under the express terms of the charter of King Charles II. to Conn., in 1662, which covered all this western territory; but they were in the very infancy of their settlement, imperiled by prowling, armed, and organized bands of Pennamites, as they were called, who claimed that the charter subsequently granted to Wm. Penn, in 1681, embraced the same territory also. These marauding bands, with their Indian allies, whose natural hostility to the settlers they could easily incite, by their joint inroads, kept the settlers and the very existence of the settlement in constant alarm and peril for several years, murdering, or taking into captivity, men, women, and children, without discrimination; burning their rude dwellings, destroying their cattle and their crops, and more than once compelling the whole band of settlers to flee for their lives; many of them pursuing their weary way on foot with their little ones, through the wilderness, back to their friends in Conn. In the war of the Revolution , which came even before their other perils had ceased, they were made the special victims of the British, Tory, and Indian barbarities, and the ever memorable "Massacre of Wyoming," which has been the pathetic burden of song and story over both continents, was the fitting and crowning event of their long suffering. In all these events and perils John Jenkins, sen., was the recognized champion and head; the founder, leader, and defender of the settlement. He was appointed by Conn. its first General Agent for the settlement of Wyoming; was a surveyor and conveyancer by profession, and made its first surveys; drafted most or all of its early public documents; was its first magistrate and justice of the peace, and its first Presiding or Chief Judge of Court; and was five times sent as its representative to the Colonial Assembly of Conn. from Wyoming, then called Westmoreland, and made part of Litchfield Co., Conn.; a circumstance which may seem a little strange to this generation. He died in Wyoming, in Nov. 1784, just after the close of the Revolutionary War, aged 56, leaving his country and his beloved valley in peace. John Jenkins, jun., served as Lieut. in the army of the revolution until the close of the war, and was afterwards a Major and Col. of militia. He was by profession a lawyer, surveyor, and conveyancer; carried on large farming operations, iron smelting, etc.; was sheriff of Luzerne Co.; County Commissioner; member of Assembly; held many local offices; for many years town clerk, supervisor, assessor, etc; was Surveyor General of the Conn. Susquehanna Com., and for some time the General Agent. He settled in Exeter township, on the site of the battleground where stood old Wintermoot fort, where he died 19 Mch., 1827, aged 75. His widow, Bethia, a woman of rare mental and moral endowments and culture, who had shared conspicuously in all the perils and hardships of the valley, and whose sufferings amid those wild scenes of blood and carnage were the nursery tales in my young days, of every Harris household in the old hive of the family in New London Co., died 12 Aug., 1842, aged 90. Children of JOHN JENKINS and LYDIA GARDNER are: i. THOMAS5 JENKINS, b. 1761; d. 1812; m. ELEANOR Shontz, d. 1847. Notes for ELEANOR Shontz: Her name has been spelled Eleanor Schaunce or Shontz. ii.

For me I was looking for an aunt who died in what I believed was an institution in PA. I began by going to the PA Department of Health and Welfare and from their I was able to find the hospital I was looking for. For me it was still in operation. I located the administration of the hospital and sent an email with my request and information. She responded quickly but was unable to locate my aunt. Then recently I came across her obit and it listed the hospital she was at when she died. I went to Google and searched for that hospital and found someone to contact. In my case the hospital has since been close and has lawsuits against it. I contacted the lawyer and he immediately replyed with who to contact. In my case upon contact the party I found that even though she died in 1965 they have her records archived and for me to get the medical file I just have to send her name, dob, dod, parents name and my relationship to her. I am not sure it will help in your case but maybe you will get lucky like I did. I had been wondering about my aunt for a long time now and finally I have the resources to get the answers. Good luck in your search. Barbara ******************************************************************************************************* More About JAMES B.
